A new guide from The Conversation encourages people to slow down and observe beneficial insects, from bogong moths to Christmas beetles, describing the practice as being like a meditation. It offers practical tips for noticing insect life around homes and gardens, and highlights tools such as iNaturalist that help people identify and record species. Readers are engaging with the idea that mindful observation can deepen appreciation of ecology.
